43. Bacchus, Carr Taylor

44. Domaine Brial Cotes du Roussillon Villages

France, Languedoc-Roussillon
In the style of a top-end Chateauneuf-du-Pape, this is a classic blend of Syrah, Grenache, Carignan and Mourvedre. Full-bodied and spicy whilst the ample fruit reveals delicious herby flavours.
£6.25  175ml    £8.50  250ml    £24.95  75cl

45. DMZ Qunitet
S.Africa, Stellenbosch
A South African take on a classic Brodeaux blend of Merlot, Cabernet, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot &Malbec, but do the French play Baroque music to their vines?! A lavish and powerful wine with a real density of fruit. Cassis-like blackcurrant, brooding bramble fruit and cedar wood.
£6.00  175ml    £8.00  250ml    £23.95  75cl

46. Alpha Zeta Valpolicella Ripasso
Italy, Veneto
Partially dried Corvina grapes help create the Ripasso style. Rich and full with a hint of sweetness in the mid palate.  Think of it as a 'baby Amarone'.
£7.75  175ml    £10.25  250ml    £29.95  75cl

47. Cuatro Pasos Mencia
Spain, Bierzo
On the nose this wine is highly perfumed and fresh with plenty of juicy red fruit character, plums, raspberries and cherries. A touch of spice from the subtle use of oak gives extra depth on the palate. Long and complex.
£6.25  175ml    £8.50  250ml    £24.95  75cl

48. Simon Hackett "Old Vine" Grenache
Australia, McLaren Vale
Big and bouncy with tonnes of plump Strawberry fruit flavours. Medium to full bodied with  a tell tale twist of spice that you get with McLaren Vale fruit. Simply delicious.

49. Artesa Rioja Rosado
Spain, Rioja
A delightful young fresh and lively Rioja Rosado.  Quaffable strawberry fruit refreshes the palate in an extremely more-ish manner.
£4.25  175ml    £5.75  250ml    £16.95  75cl
